More about this artwork

"Enkelin Maria auf dem Arm der Kinderfrau" is a compelling work by the renowned German artist Max Liebermann, dating back to 1916. This intimate portrait highlights the tender bond between a young child and her caregiver. With masterful strokes, Liebermann captures the innocent gaze of the young Maria, who peers out with an expression of curiosity and wonder. Clad in a simple white dress, her gentle vulnerability is emphasized, contrasting harmoniously with the composed and protective demeanor of the nurse who holds her securely.The painting is executed with a loose, impressionistic style that Liebermann was celebrated for, allowing the intimate warmth and subtle interplay of light and shadow to envelope the subjects. The caregiver's affectionate and serene countenance, paired with her worn features, suggests a story of dedication and care that resonates with viewers even today.This piece not only showcases Liebermann's skill in portraiture but also serves as a touching ode to the quiet, everyday moments of human connection and the unspoken depth of relationships formed in the seemingly mundane facets of life.

Max Liebermann was a German painter and printmaker of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, and one of the leading proponents of Impressionism in Germany.

The son of a Jewish fabric manufacturer turned banker from Berlin, Liebermann grew up in an imposing town house alongside the Brandenburg Gate.

He first studied law and philosophy at the University of Berlin, but later studied painting and drawing in Weimar in 1869, in Paris in 1872, and in the Netherlands in 1876–77.
